E-Dubble is to food flavored songs as marinade is to tofu. The two just go together, are needed by each other, in order to make things work. E-Dubble’s latest foray into the world of food based phrases is “Big Ships”. This track is the newest entry in E-Dubble’s first Friday series in which he releases a track on the first Friday of the month. There’s [...]
Winston-Salem took major pride in Purple for the past week. It had nothing to do with the royals in town or spiritual fullfilment but everything to do with eating habits. A paint the town purple campaign was sponsored by the Novant Health Maya Angelou Woman’s Health and Wellness Center. The goal of this campaign was to raise awareness about the obesity issues in the area. The [...]
My go to wrap of choice has been (and probably always will be) the flour tortilla. There’s just something about that yummy starch roll. It is thin enough to allow the ingredients to shine, unlike a lot of bread based sandwich shells, but it is thick enough to hold everything in place and give your ingredients a nice chewy exclamation point. I know there are a [...]
March 1st is a day dedicated to St. David, the patron saint of the Welsh. David is said to have had a melodic voice and so school age children honor this by taking part in concerts that include both recitation and song. St. David’s personal symbol (and a Welsh national symbol) is the Allium porrum or leek. According to legend, King Cadwaladr of Gwynedd ordered [...]
Lunch table, circa 2013. Seven women and a dude are enjoying their various meals (mostly storebought, except for his which looks to be a gallon of chili that he is attempting to eat for a week straight). A middle aged woman with a Georgian accent pulls out a cardboard box of leftover Chinese food. She declares to everyone that this is the “freshest Chinese food [...]
We interrupt the regularly scheduled broadcast (which is me cracking nut jokes as I make various milks in my new Vitamix) to share this important recipe. It came about because on my last trip to the Asian market I needed some miso. Instead of buying a small container, I opted for the largest one they had. This meant I actually needed to seek out miso [...]
I’ve been cooking up a storm this weekend, so I’ll be back with food I actually made in my own kitchen shortly. First I wanted to share about one of the places we ate on our trip north. Usually J-Fur and I use the holidays as a chance to visit family (who always want to cook for us) and hit up some of the local [...]

When it comes to seeds or nuts that have been ground into a paste, my world has always revolved around peanut butter. During my teenage years when I sought out a quick after school snack, I grabbed the bread and put together a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. My first forays into Asian style rice usually involved a peanut butter blend for the sauce. Green [...]
